The Senators traded Galchenyuk and Cedric Paquette to the Hurricanes for Ryan Dzingel on Saturday, Frank Seravalli of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Galchenyuk needed a change of scenery after posting one point and a minus-6 rating over the first eight games, averaging 9:30 of ice time in that stretch. The Hurricanes will be Galchenyuk's sixth team in four seasons. The 27-year-old generated more than 15 goals in five straight seasons before dropping off severely last year. According to NHL writer John Shannon, Galchenyuk won't require a quarantine, and he could play in Monday's game versus the Blue Jackets.
